I love those freak fights but I suppose that's not really the UFC's thing. I think the only real freak fight they had was Randy Couture vs James Toney. The other one I had in mind was Tim Silva vs ...some bodybuilder. LOVED that fight, if I remember correctly Tim was out of shape, came out of retirement, then won that fight. Beat him bad too the guy was in la la land. Don't think that was UFC though that was in the ring not cage.

I've been looking for a particular fight on youtube and I'm hoping someone here can help find it or has seen this before.

So I haven't seen this in like 10 years, it may have been on ebaumsworld. The fight must've happened 80s/90s and I don't think it was a professional organization. A ring was setup but I think it was in a club or something. Also the 'fighters' weren't fighters. I'm almost positive 1 guy was a bouncer. The other guy was an interesting character. The commentators were saying how he claims to have invented his own martial art and I think they even said he was selling VHS instructional tapes. I definitely remember them saying he'd go out in the street and dodge cars to practice his martial art. The only thing I remember about his martial art is he had some weird 'spin' technique to deflect strikes..or something.

The whole fight was pretty short, I think it consisted of the bouncer marching across the ring and throwing big right hands till he tko'd the guy.

World Boxing Super Series: George Groves retains WBA title after points win over Chris Eubank Jr

George Groves produced a superb performance to retain his WBA world super-middleweight title as an enthralling points win over Chris Eubank Jr took him into the World Boxing Super Series final.

The 29-year-old was patient throughout, preventing his rival from boxing up close by mixing good footwork with solid counter-punches.

A cut above Eubank Jr's right eye in the third round hampered the 28-year-old, who enjoyed joy of his own in a riveting 12th round, where noise in the Manchester Arena reached a crescendo with both men looking vulnerable.

But Groves' poise in parts was key and the 117-112 116-112 115-113 scores on the judges' cards means he will meet either England's Callum Smith or Jurgen Brahmer of Germany in the final.
